Cavs Rumors

Report: Cleveland Cavaliers Likely to Re-Sign Sharpshooter Kyle Korver

According to Joe Vardon of Cleveland.com, the Cleveland Cavaliers are “intent” on bringing back veteran shooting guard Kyle Korver for the 2017-18 season.

With the Cavs already way over the salary cap, it will be difficult finding a replacement for somebody of Korver’s talent on the free-agent market. The Cavs have Korver’s Bird rights, which basically means they can go above the salary cap to re-sign him.

The veteran sharpshooter averaged 10.7 points on 48.7 percent shooting from the floor and 48.5 percent shooting from three-point land last season.

In other news, according to Vardon, the Cavs are unlikely to bring back veteran point guard Deron Williams because the most they could offer him is the $5.1 million exception. Vardon states that the point guard is likely to seek a better deal elsewhere.
